RRP £2,900

A stunning shade, between violet and pink, (the intesity changes in the light), this colour, named after the opera 'Tosca' made famous by Italian composer Puccini, was released for the 2011 Autumn Winter collection.

The Evelyne bag was named after Évelyne Bertrand, who was the head of Hermès’s riding department. Designed in 1978 to carry grooming equipment, (the perforated H was designed to enable air to enter the bag to dry the equipment,) it was originally sold in stores alongside other equestrian goods! Now only very occasionally offered by Hermés, its become more and more sought after due to its lessening availability.

Iconic in its simplicity and crafted from a soft, supple, and deeply pebbled hide that slouches perfectly to mould to your side in use.

"The story behind

Since 1978, this bag has enchanted daily riders. First intended to tend horses, it is sewn without a lining and brightened up with an “H” perforation, which the initiates wear against the body, in order to allow the equipment to dry. With its girth-like shoulder strap, the Évelyne is the perfect heart-minder.

 Taurillon Clemence Leather
Named in tribute to the daughter of the designer who introduced it into the collections, this leather was developed for luggage and is the ultimate example of a grained leather that has been drummed. This process softens the skin and brings a generous grain to the surface.
First appeared in the collections: 1992
Appearance: Semi-matt, generous and irregular grain
Feel: Soft and smooth
Hand: Yielding
Change over time: Becomes more supple" Hermés.com

 

Condition -  Excellent 

 

 Details -

Hard to believe she was born in 2011, this incredibly beautiful Evelyne is is an amazing condition.

Well shaped, colour consistent and without any immediately visible use, she's very gently softened but still completey upright, corners and curves without wear, stitching all tight, hardware all shiny and the webbed strap displays no surface ruffling or impressions from the sliding buckle.

It's only on very close inspection can you note two very small areas of colour rubbing to the surface of the hide. One to the LH sides' D ring loop at the top aperture and one to the underside of the shoulder straps' end tab, (on the other side to the 'Hermés Made in France' embossing.) Shown in close up detail in the Gallery above, to the naked eye they are barely there.

Entirely clean, self lined suede interior with natural pile ruffling
